Clothing

Louis Vuitton's men's ready-to-wear brings together every category needed to build a full wardrobe, from considered shirts and precise tailoring to relaxed knitwear and denim. Under Menswear Creative Director Pharrell Williams, the range is designed to move between formal and off-duty registers within a single, coherent wardrobe.

A Wardrobe Built in Layers

Rather than treating each category in isolation, the collection is designed so that pieces move between registers: a shirt cut for tailoring also works open over a T-shirt, and knitwear layers as easily under a coat as it does alone. This makes it possible to build a smaller, more versatile wardrobe rather than separate capsules for work and off-duty wear.

A Range Built to Layer

Tailored trousers and structured outerwear and coats anchor the collection for formal occasions, while denim and jersey pieces carry the same wardrobe into the weekend.

Starting a Wardrobe from Scratch

• Begin with a small number of well-fitted basics: a shirt, a T-shirt and a pair of trousers
• Add one outerwear piece suited to the local climate
• Introduce a single statement or seasonal piece to update the wardrobe each year

Seasonal Considerations

Cooler months lean more heavily on knitwear, tailoring and outerwear, while spring and summer favour lighter shirting, denim and short-sleeved pieces. Buying slightly ahead of season, rather than at its peak, generally offers the widest choice of sizes and styles.

Complete the Wardrobe

Ready-to-wear is finished with the right footwear and accessories: pair a tailored look with men's shoes chosen to match the occasion.
